Libby Shell done and handed in and I got paid for it! YAY!

EXCEPT-- my boss pays £1.75 per 50 grams used, not market price of 15pence/meter (or 15cents/yard in the states). (and of course cost of materials is above and beyond, but my materials were provided, so I don't worry about that for this random story) So I should have been paid £24 and instead got £12. Not that big of deal when you consider that a sweater made from Rowan's cork would be worth £132 and only get £14.... hmmmm...

not that I really mind, because I'm not trying to eat with this money, but it makes me wonder what I'm doing to the market, you know?
